Time-Space Rescue

Zhu Yuanzhang looks at Zhu Xiongying, who is in Ma Xiuying's arms and on the verge of death, and cannot help but feel a pain so deep it breaks his heart; tears spill down his face.

A space-time gate opens, and Ling Xiao, making his first space-time rescue mission, rushes in. Seeing that the child is still alive, he finally lets out a quiet breath of relief. Then, turning to the stunned and uncertain Old Zhu, he lays out the condition: change fate against the heavens, and within a hundred years the territory of the Ming Dynasty must exceed 13.72 million square kilometers, or else the Ming Dynasty, which in the future lasts 276 years, will perish ahead of schedule.

Liu Bei, leading the people across the Yangtze, looks exhausted as he watches the fleeing army crawl forward at a snail's pace while more and more people join them, and he does not know what to do.

Ling Xiao steps forward: “Someone has given you ten thousand bicycles and ten thousand handcarts; please sign for them.”

At Wuzhang Plains.

Zhuge Liang, with his oil nearly gone and his lamp nearly extinguished: “Heaven above, why are you so unfair to me?”

Ling Xiao brings Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and the others out through the space-time gate: “Minister, please do not die yet. Someone has sent you one million boxes of instant noodles, and one hundred thousand crispy college students also want to make trouble for you—no, I mean, help for free!”

Whether it is the suffering and despair of ordinary people, or the lifelong regrets of historical figures, Ling Xiao gives it his all to rescue them.

He knows full well that the myriad worlds are far too vast and his own ability far too small.

But every person trapped in despair hopes that someone will reach out and pull them up.

So Ling Xiao wants to say, in a very overestimating-his-own-ability way: hope never dies, and I am on my way!
